The drive from Monument Valley to Page is only 128 miles. The roads are not the smoothest, but we were not in a rush. After arriving at Antelope Point RV Park ($80 per night, no discounts) near the Marina in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. This is a beautiful new RV Park with nice concrete pads, paved roads, and artificial turf for spacious yards. Its only 10 minutes to Page and five minutes to upper and lower Antelope Canyon. After getting the Wanderer set up, we drove into town to get Leslie’s ankle looked at since this is the first place where we could get access to a Doc-in-a box. After a brief check, the doc declared it “just a sprain” and gave Leslie a stiffer ankle brace and told her to keep working it. At least it was good to know there is nothing fractured. Then we did some grocery shopping (after two weeks in the boonies, supplies were getting low) and had a nice early dinner. The time zone thing is messing with our heads. Arizona does not observe daylight savings time unless you are on the Navajo Reservation, which does observe it. So, in the brief drive from the RV park which is on Reservation Land, to Page, we lose an hour. So instead of being a 5 o’clock dinner, it was a 4 o’clock dinner. We need to be careful to make sure we don’t miss a tour because of the time zone changing.
